However, it is often difficult for foreigners to understand their jokes. The main point to remember is that the British often use understatement.Understatement means saying less than you think or feel. For example, if someone gets very wet in a shower of rain, he might say, “Its a little damp (潮湿的) outside.” Or, if someone is very impolite and shouts at another person, someone else might say, “She isn’t exactly friendly.” Understatement is often used in unpleasant situation or to make another person look silly. Understatement plays an important part in British humor.Another key to understanding British humor is that the British like to make fun of themselves as well as others. They often laugh about the silly and unpleasant things that happen to our everyday life when someone accidently falls over in the street. They also like to make jokes about people from different classes of society. They like to make jokes about their accents, the way they dress and the way they behave. What’s more, the British love to watch comedies (喜剧) about people who do not know how to behave in society. The comedies series Mr. Bean is a good example of this kind of humor.Mr. Bean is the character created by British actor Rowan Atkinson in 1990. Mr. Bean doesn’t talk often, and instead he uses his body movement and facial expressions to make people laugh. Perhaps what makes Mr. Bean so funny is that he does things that adults in the real world cannot do. Mr. Bean is popular in many countries around the world because you do not have to speak English to understand the humor. Because of this, many people have become familiar with the British sense of humor.4．（小题1）Why is it difficult for foreigners to understand British jokes?A．The British often enlarge the fact.B．British jokes are connected with many different cultures.C．British jokes are not as funny as jokes in other countries.D．The British try to make out that something is less important than it is.5．（小题2）The author explains understatement by _______.A．describing a process B．making comparisonsC．following time order D．using examples6．（小题3）Mr. Bean makes laugh by ______.A．using his body movement and facial expressionsB．making jokes about others’ accentC．copying how others behaveD．telling funny stories7．（小题4）What can be the best title for the text?A．British Humor in ComedyB．Humor in Different CulturesC．Understanding British HumorD．Developing Your Sense of HumorA black hole is created when a large star burns out. Like our sun, stars are unbelievably hot furnaces(熔炉) that burn their own matter as fuel. When most of the fuel is used up, the star begins to die.The death of a star is not a quiet event. First there is a huge explosion. As its outer layer is blasted off into space, the dying star shines as brightly as a billion suns.After the explosion, gravity pulls in what's left of the star. As the outside of the star sinks toward the center, the star gets smaller and smaller. The material the star is made of becomes tightly packed together. A star is so solid that a teaspoon of matter from it weighs billions of pounds.The more the star shrinks(收缩), the stronger the gravity inside it becomes. Soon the star is very tiny, and the gravity pulling it in is unbelievably strong. In fact, the gravity is so strong that it even pulls light into the star! Since all the light is pulled in, none can go out. The star becomes black when there is no light. Then a black hole is born!That's what we know about black holes. What we don't know is this: What happens inside a black hole after the star has been squeezed into a tiny ball? Does it keep getting smaller and smaller forever? Such a possibility is hard to imagine.But if the black hole doesn't keep shrinking, what happens to it? Some scientists think black holes are like doorways to another world. They say that as the star disappears from our universe, it goes into another universe. In other words a black hole in our universe could turn into a "white hole" in a different universe. As the black hole swallows(吞噬) light, the white hole shines brightly--somewhere else. But where? A different place, perhaps, or a different time--many years in the past or future.Could you travel through a black hole? Right now, no. Nothing we know of could go into a black hole without being crushed(挤压). So far the time being, black hole must remain a mystery.Black holes are a mystery--but that hasn't stopped scientists from dreaming about them. One scientist suggested that in the future we might make use of the power of black holes. They would supply all of Earth's energy needs, with plenty to spare. Another scientist wondered if a black hole could some day be used to swallow earthly waste--a sort of huge waste disposal(处理) in the sky!8．When the star begins to die ______.A．there is no fuel left in it B．a huge explosion will happenC．its outer layer goes into space first D．it doesn't give off light any longer9．Which of the following doesn't help produce a black hole?A．The dying star shines less brightly.B．The light can't go out of the star.C．The star becomes smaller and smallerD．The gravity inside the star is very strong.10．The black hole ______.A．continues becoming smaller and smaller all the timeB．goes into another universe and becomes a white holeC．will appear at another place at a different timeD．can pull in everything we know of in the world11．What's the best title for this passage?A．A New Scientific Discovery: Black HolesC．How Do Black Holes Swallow Light?D．Travel Through A Black HoleYears ago, the American writer Kurt Vonnegut often said there was one story that would always make a million dollars: Cinderella.Cinderella made more like $ 70 million in ticket sales when it opened last weekend. But the movie got a mixed reaction. David Rooney of The Hollywood Reporter praised the movie and said, “Anyone will find something to enjoy in it.” Steven Rea of The Philadelphia Inquirer called the movie “a winning re-do”. Richard Corliss of Time magazine wrote that “Disney finally got Cinderella right. ” Other people were not as happy with the movie. Sara Stewa rt of the New York Post wrote, “This Cinderella is all dressed up with nowhere very interesting to go.”Although different people think differently towards the movie, what is clear, however, is the movie’s business success. It is not only popular in the theaters but also in sales. And Disney has widened its usual market for Cinderella products.There are products connected to the Disney movie targeted (面向) not only at little girls, but women, too. For example, the famous shoe designer Jimmy Choo worked with Disney to create Cinderella’s shoes”. You can buy them for about $ 5,000. At that price, you would not want to lose one at the party, even if that is the way you get your prince (王子).The make-up (化妆品) company MAC quickly sold all its products connected to Cinderella. HSN is a popular website selling clothing and objects for the home. The marketer is now also selling Cinderella products.So, is there anything left for the children, those people we think of as the traditional audience (观众) for the age-old t ale? Yes, you can find toys and other children’s products at the American store JCPenney. Of course, you can also visit a Disney store.12．The underlined part “a mixed reaction” in Paragraph 2 probably means.A．many changes B．different storiesC．advantages and disadvantages D．agreements and disagreements13．Products connected to Cinderella .A．do not sell very wellB．are all very expensiveC．are mainly targeted at little girlsD．are designed for a wide group of buyers14．Where can children buy toys connected to Cinderella?A．At MAC．B．At MAC and HSN.15．What is the best title for the text?A．Sellers of Cinderella Products B．Cinderella Is More than a MovieC．What Makes Cinderella so Popular D．Unknown Stories behind Cinderella二、七选五16．（题文）How to write an email?While many people are accessible by email, sometimes it is difficult to determine how exactly to write an email to them. Here are some tips for you to follow.Write an appropriate subject line. The subject line should tell the recipient (接收者) immediately what the email is about. （小题1） Remember that your wording also has to be brief.（小题2） It is best to be more formal rather than informal, so when writing to someone you have never met or written to before, a “Dear Jane Smith” is appropriate. When addressing someone whom you are a little familiar with, a “Dr. Smith” is okay until they tell you to address them by their first name, in which case a simple “Jane” will be okay.（小题3） Within the first two sentences of your email, your recipient should know exactly why you are writing to him. Sometimes an introduction may have to precede (先于) the sentence that states why you are writing, and sometimes it has to follow.Use appropriate language. You may be used to using informal language in certain social settings. （小题4）Even when dealing with colleagues or friends you are familiar with, do not immediately fall back on informal language.Keep it simple. People may get dozens and even hundreds of emails a day.（小题5） In that way, they can save much of their time when reading emails.A． Use proper greetings.B． Express your ideas clearly.C． State your purpose at the beginning.D． Be as specific as possible when writing the subject.E. However, an email may not be the best place to use such language.F. It is important to check the language to avoid spelling and grammar mistakes.G. It is always easier for them if you keep your email as short and brief as possible.三、完形填空Susan was a shy but clever girt. She ____17____thick glasses, which were often made fun of by her classmates.

Why was the author disappointed and confused？______A. His life-long dream to be a professor didn't come true.B. The advice he received from the workshop had no use.C. He didn't learn the magic from the workshop successfully.D. The program he did wasted him four years of time.5. What did the author think of the adviser's suggestion？______A. It was temporarily useful.B. It sounded quite average.C. It seemed challenging.D. It was of use to practice.6. What can we infer about the author from the fourth paragraph？______A. He didn't like biology.B. He didn't have a strong body.C. He had no interest in teaching.D. He had good communication skills.7. What kind of person is the author？______A. Active and flexible.B. Focused and humorous.C. Determined and easy-going.D. Hard-working and independent.CA series of fast-moving global trends，motivated by trillion-pound investments （投资），indicates that humanity might be able to avoid the worst influences of global warming.From renewable energy tomass-market electric cars，to plant-based alternatives to meat，these trends show that greenhouse gas emissions （排放）can be stopped.No one is saying the battle to prevent catastrophic climate change — floods，droughts，famine — has been won. "The important thing is to recognize that we're seriously challenged，" says Christina Figueres，former UN Climate Chief. "At the same time，the fact is we're already seeing many positive trends."The world's appetite for meat and dairy foods is rising as people's incomes rise，but unless this is entirely changed，there's no way to beat global warming.The task looks discouraging — people hate being told what to eat.However，just in the last year，a potential solution has burst on to the market：plant-based meat，which has a tiny environmental footprint.A food that looks and tastes just as good as meat or dairy products but is made from plants — has attracted heavy investment.It is particularly obvious in the US，where Bill Gates has backed two plant-based burger （汉堡）companies.Perhaps even more telling is that major meat and dairy companies are now piling in with investments，such as the US's biggest meat processor，Tyson，and multinational giants Danone and Nestlé.The Chinese government in 2017 put ﹩ 300 million into Israeli companies producing lab-grown meat，which could also cut emissions.Will these trends move fast enough to avoid the worst of climate change？The LSE's Nicholas Stern is cautiously optimistic，saying that what has changed in recent years is the realization that green economic growth is the only long-term option.8. According to Paragraph 1，a large amount of money is used to ______ .A. develop the economy of the worldB. promote the sales of electric carsC. raise awareness of environmental protectionD. stop the bad influence of global warming9. What is the main purpose of the invention of plant-based meat？______A. To change the eating habit of humans.B. To meet the increasing demand of meat.C. To reduce greenhouse gas emissions.D. To solve food shortage of the world.10. What is the function of Paragraph 5 in this text？______A. To explain the background.B. To introduce the topic.C. To summarize the text.D. To list some examples.11. In which part of a website can the text be found？______A. Environment.B. Society.C. Technology.D. Education.DThere's nothing better than a walk in the countryside for lifting our spirits.Connecting with nature has been proven to help our mental health.For some，the refreshing thing is to walk through a forest，but as we admire the trees that surround us，it's worth knowing these trees are doing more than just being nice things to look at.We're already aware of the benefits of trees—they produce oxygen and clean the air we breathe by absorbing about a quarter of all human-caused carbon dioxide emissions（排放）.But there's more to these impressive forms of vegetation than we might think.Researchers have discovered evidence that proves they are actually intelligent.It's thought that trees talk and share resources right under our feet，using a fungal（真菌的）network.Under the ground are tree roots，and mixed among them，are thousands of superfine threads of fungi.And research has shown that they are all interconnected.They can help each other by sharing nutrients，and they can even warn of approaching threats.Scientists say it's like the trees are talking to one another.Ecologist Suzanne Simard has called this network the Wood Wide Web.She discovered that parent trees use this network to help their offspring（后代）.She said，"We found that the parent trees would favourthose offspring by sending them more nutrients." She also found that trees are smart enough to change their behaviour and have managed to adapt and survive in a changing environment.So it seems trees really are the stars of our natural world，and with around a huge number of them on our planet，it's time to show them some respect if we want them to grow healthily.12. What's the benefit of being surrounded by trees？______A. Increasing our intelligence.B. Improving our mental health.C. Lowering the risk of diseases.D. Developing our taste for beauty.13. How do trees talk to each other？______A. By changing their behavior.B. By changing their environment.C. By waving to each other with their leaves.D. By using threads of fungi under the ground.14. What's the possible way for parent trees to help their offspring survive？______A. They interconnect all the trees.B. They choose the smartest offspring.C. They send their offspring more nutrients.D. They warn their offspring of approaching threats.15. What's the best title of the text？______A. Clever Trees.B. The Functions of Trees.C. Natural Selection.D. Environmental Protection.Are you stressed out，scared or worried all the time？Do you avoid going to certain places，seeing friends or doing certain things because of your worries？Do your worries keep you awake at night？(1) Anxiety is a normal and necessary part of life.Anxiety is your brain's way of telling you about danger.It is anxiety that helps you jump out of the way if a car is speeding towards you.But if it gets out of hand，anxiety can get in the way of you getting on with life and can become a real problem.

He wants people to stop driving because cars make the air dirty. Ted had an idea. He said,“I’m going to cycle around North America. I want to show everyone that cycling is a fun way to get around. If more people ride bikes, the ai r will be cleaner.”He left his hometown with $160 in his pocket. When he got to San Diego, he met another cyclist. The cyclist invited Ted to speak at a big meeting about the environment. He said,“We’ll pay your airfare to Texas and we’ll pay you to talk about your cycling trip.”Two hours later, Ted was on a plane to the environmental conferen ce and to a big surprise!While he was at the conference, he met Deanna.

Many of us live in busy places and have busy lives. Even the roads are busy as we try to get from here to there. Adults are busy going to jobs and taking care of their families. Kids are busy, too, going to school and doing a lot of homework after school and on weekends.Busy isn’t bad, necessarily. If you are not busy enough you might be bored. But if you are too busy, you might break down. For example, if you have a soccer game that runs late on a school night and you haven’t eaten dinner or done your homework, that’s anot-so-fun kind of busy. We wanted to know what kids thought, so we did a kidsPoll about being busy with 882girls and boys aged 9 to 13.Almost all of them said they felt stressed because they were too busy. About half said they felt this way once in a while or some of the time. But 17% said they felt this way most of the time and 24% said they felt this all the time! Oh d ear, that’s no fun.Only 4% of kids said they wanted less free time and 18% said they already had just the right amount. But, no big surprise, 61% of kids wish they had a lot more free time. If they had more time, most would spend it hanging out or playing with friends.Often, adults plan large parts of a kid’s day, especially during the school year. kids can’t tell their parents they’ll be skipping school(逃学) today to get more f ree time! But they can tell their parents they’d like to play a game or read a book during their free time instead of watching TV.9. By giving the example of a late soccer game, the writer intends to tell us______. A．Being too busy is bad for the kidsB．It is no fun to be busy for the kidsC．Homework should go before gamesD．Being busy may cause the kids to feel bored10. According to the passage, the KidsPoll is done to carry out research on _____. A．How kids arrange their free timeB．What kids think of being busyC．How many kids felt stressedD．What kids do with their study11. From the passage, we can infer that the writer agrees kids can_____.A．Spend their free time hanging or playing outB．Get a lot more free time from their parentsC．Have a right amount of free time with permissionD．Get more free time from school work sometimesDAs we have seen, the focus of medical care in our society has been shifting from curing disease to preventing disease—especially in terms of changing our many unhealthy behaviors,such as p oor eating habits, smoking, and failure to exercise. The line of thought involved in this shift can be pursued further. Imagine a person who is about the right weight, but does not eat very nutritious (有营养的) foods, who feels OK but exercises only occasionally, who goes to work every day, but is not an outstanding worker, who drinks a few beers at home most nights but does not drive while drunk, and who has no chest pains or abnormal blood counts, but sleeps a l ot and often feels tired. This person is not ill. He may not even be at risk for any particular disease. But we can imagine that this person could be a lot healthier.The field of medicine has not traditionally distinguished between someone who is merely “not ill” and someone who is in excellent health and pays attention to the body’s special needs. Both types have simply been called “well”. In recent years, however, some health specialists have begun to apply the terms “well” and “wellness” only to those who are actively striving to maintain and improve their health. People who are well are concerned with nutrition and exercise, and they make a point of monitoring their body’s condition. Most important, perhaps, people who are well take active responsibility for all matters related to their health. Even people who have a physical disease or handicap (缺陷) may be “well” in this new sense, if they make an effort to maintain the best possible health they can in the face of their physical li mitations. “Wellness” may perhaps best be viewed not as a state that people can achieve, but as an ideal that people can strive for. People who are well are likely to be better able to resist disease and to fight disease when it strikes. And by focusing attention on healthy ways of living, the concept of wellness can have a beneficial impact on the ways in whic h people face the challenges of daily life.12. In the first paragraph, people are reminded that ________.A. good health is more than not being illB. drinking, even if not to excess, could be harmfulC．regular health checks are essential to keeping fitD．prevention is more difficult than cure13. Traditionally, a person is considered “well” if he ________.A．does not have any unhealthy living habitsB．does not have any physical handicapsC．is able to handle his daily routinesD．is free from any kind of disease14. According to the author, the true meaning of “wellness” is for people ________. A．to best satisfy their body’s special needsB．to strive to maintain the best possible healthC．to meet the str ictest standards of bodily healthD．to keep a proper balance between work and leisure15. According to what the author advocates, which of the following groups of people would be considered healthy?A．People who have strong muscles as well as slim figures.B．People who are not presently experiencing any symptoms of disease.C．People who try to be as possible, regardless of their limitations.D．People who can recover from illness even without seeking medical care.E根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.Best friend birthday gift ideasWhen your best friend's birthday is coming up, you obviously want to get them the coolest, most unforgettable gift that you can find.

Teens.B. Sports.C. Economy.D. Advertisement.CAre you patient？Do you have attention to detail，free time and access to a computer？Well，then a scientist might welcome your help.Researchers in the UK say it's becoming important to count on common people to help them with their projects.They need people to examine data and submit their observations online.British teenagers Sasha and Matthew are taking part in a study of penguins（企鹅）from the comfort of their homes.The pair look at pictures and tag（标签）photos identifying adults，chicks and eggs.Every click of their mouse is helping to build up a detailed picture of penguin colonies（群）.They，and thousands of others，are helping scientists to understand why some colonies are growing and others are decreasing.Within the first four hours of Penguin Watch going live，"citizen scientists" marked more images than the research team had in five years.Dr.Tom Hart，Penguin Watch Coordinator at Oxford University，says，"When you go beyond what a scientist can analyse to what a mass audience can do，then it increases beyond what any other project could do."The British Science Association says families are helping out with careful research.It made a difference to the Planet Hunters Project，which ran for five years.Volunteers looked at dots which showed how the brightness of a star changed at different points in its solar system.According to Dr.Robert Simpson from Oxford University，who took part in the project，the volunteers discovered planets and these are now in published papers.He says with pride，"We can go and look at these planets with other telescopes and we know they exist because of those helpers."But how do scientists guard their research against accidental or deliberate mistakes in observation？Dr.Simpson isn't worried. "We get lots of people looking at the same things，" he says.The researcher warns that people who are mistakenly clicking on the site are very obvious and can be identified very quickly.So，there's no fooling the scientists.And to make sure things go well，the Penguin Watch paper will go through a peer review before being published.After that，every "citizen scientist" will be credited.8. According to the passage，who will be suitable to help the scientists？______A. An engineer who works in a company.B. A university student who likes science.C. A businessman who invests in a new project.D. A careful teenager who uses the computer smoothly.9. What is a volunteer required to do？______A. Publish his observation data by himself.B. Observe pictures and record his observation.C. Discuss his observation with other volunteers.D. Take his report to the scientist and correct mistakes.10. How could scientists avoid mistakes in observation？______A. By working with volunteers.B. By using their own data.C. By identifying pictures and photos.D. By going through a peer review.11. What's Dr.Simpson's attitude towards the volunteers' observation？______A. Objective.B. Supportive.C. Negative.D. Doubtful.DSocial distancing is not a new concept in the natural world，where infectious diseases are commonplace.Through specialized senses animals can detect certain diseases and change their behavior to avoid getting ill.In 1966，while studying chimps（猩猩）in a Tanzanian national park，zoologist Jane Goodall observed a chimp named McGregor who had caught a highly infectious virus.His fellow chimps attacked him and threw him out of the group.In one instance，McGregor approached chimps in a tree.He reached out a hand in greeting，but the others moved away without a backward glance."For a full two minutes，old McGregor sat motionless，staring after them，" Goodall notes in her 1971 book In the Shadow of Man. "It's really not that different to how some societies react today to such a tragedy." Not all animals are so aggressive toward their sick neighbors.Sometimes it's as simple as avoiding those who may infect you.When Kiesecker，a lead scientist in America，studied American bullfrog in the late 1990s，he found that bullfrogs could not only detect a deadly smell of infection in other bullfrogs，but healthy members actively avoided those that were sick.Bullfrogs rely on chemicals signals to determine who is sick or not. Caribbean lobsters（龙虾）also avoid diseased members of their community，well before they become infectious.It takes about eight weeks for lobsters infected with the deadly virus to become dangerous to others.Normally social animals，lobsters begin keeping away from the diseased as early as four weeks afterinfection—once the lobsters can smell certain chemicals released by sick individuals."Overall，it's important to note that，unlike us，animals don't realize if they stay home，they might actually reduce the infection rate，" Kiesecker explains. "As humans，we have that ability.It's a big difference."12. Why did other chimps attack McGregor？______A. He was a loner.B. He got seriously ill.C. He may cause the group ill.D. He hurt other chimps first.13. How did Goodall feel when seeing McGregor's result？______A. Supportive.B. Doubtful.C. Objective.D. Sympathetic.14. How long will the healthy Caribbean lobsters stay with the diseased ones？______A. About a month.B. About eight weeks.C. About four days.D. Fewer than four weeks.15. Which can be a suitable title for the text？______A. Social Distancing in Nature.B. Carrying out Social Distancing.C. Puzzling Social Distancing in Chimps.D. Social Distancing between Human and Animals.The comfort zone is a safe space where we don't risk，but neither do we grow. (1) Change and growth occur.We can not become what we want to be，remaining in what we are today.There are many good reasons to be encouraged to leave the comfort zone.Prepare yourself for difficult times.Safe as we feel in our comfort zone，that space will not protect us from the problems，which usually appear in life in an unexpected way producing great changes. (2) These problems can produce psychological disorders.But learning to live outside the comfort zone，dealing with novelty and uncertainty will make us people emotionally stronger.(3) The comfort zone represents everything we know.Outside is another world to discover.In the comfort zone there are no great ideas or new discoveries.It's necessary to leave the known to find the inspiration to creativity.In fact，a study conducted at the University of Florida found that students who spent just one term outside their country scored better on creativity tests than those who had been studying at the same university.Feel more alive.Leaving the comfort zone，we meet new people and live new experiences.Some of these experiences will not be positive but others will become a driving force that gives us new energy.Thus we're learning to enjoy more life. (4)Exercises to get out of your comfort zone will allow you to expand your growth zone without experiencing too much anxiety. (5) That's in the growth zone，and you can reach the best of ourselves，learn new things.16. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. EF. FG. G17. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. EF. FG. G18. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. EF. FG. G19.

Families traveled from all over the country to attend this three-day event, which included LEGO car races, mini-golf courses(球场) made of LEGO bricks, and LEGO models of the city of Philadelphia. While attendees were observing fantastic creations and making their own, they may not have realized just how much knowledge they were gaining.LEGO bricks are fun and creativity-developing toys.

People of all ages flocked to Philadelphia to witness brick Fest Live. Attendees could play a round of LEGO mini golf, buy LEGO items, make their own creations, play video games and view large-scale creations by other LEGO enthusiasts. “We want to inspire, educate and entertain,” Collins said.Brick Fest Live began in April 2012, when Chad Collins and Jordan decided to start a YouTube channel.

The first Brick Fest Live brought in 24,000 people, much more than expected.Where will Brick Fest Live head to next? From September 19-21, Brick Fest Live will take place in Baltimore, Maryland.

The only thing that brightened my day was the beautifully decorated Christmas tree in our waiting room and a gift sent to me by a fellow I was dating—a dozen long-stemmed red roses.As I was cleaning my office, our receptionist came and said there was a lady in the front office that urgently needed to speak with me. As I stepped out, I noticed a young, tired-looking woman with a baby in her arms. Nervously, she explained that her husband—a prisoner in a nearby prisonwas my next patient. The guards were scheduled to bring him to the office that afternoon. She told me she wasn’t allowed to visit her husband in prison and that he had never seen his son. Her request was for me to let the boy’s father sit in the waiting room with her as long as possible before I called him for his appointment. Since my schedule wasn’t full, I agreed. After all, it was Christmas Eve.A short time later, her husband arrived—with chains on his feet and hands, and two armed guards as bodyguards. The woman’s tired face lit up like our little Christmas tree when her husband took a seat beside her. I kept glancing out to watch them laugh, cry and share their child. After almost an hour, I called the prisoner back to my office. While I worked, the guards stood just outside my door. The patient seemed like a gentle and modest man. I wondered what he possibly could have done t o be held under such conditions. I tried to make him as comfortable as possible.At the end of the appointment, I wished him a Merry Christmas—a difficult thing to say to a man headed back to prison. He smiled and thanked me. He also said he felt saddened by the fact he hadn’t been able to get his wife anything for Christmas.On hearing this, I was inspired with a wonderful idea.I’ll never forget the look on both their faces as the prisoner gave his wife the beautiful, long-stemmed roses. I’m not sure who experienced the most joy—the husband in giving, the wife in receiving, or myself in having the opportunity to share in this special moment.9．What can be inferred from the first paragraph?A.
